This was a funny book - with "dark" humor. Joey figured out that she had married a jerk when her husband threw her off a cruise ship. What Chaz Perrone didn't figure on was that his beautiful wife was also a championship swimmer. Joey manages to save herself from drowning - and is rescued by an ex-cop named Mick Stranaham. With Mick's assistance, Joey comes up with a plan for revenge on her husband. Carl Hiaasen always writes up wacky characters and this book is no exception ... a great, funny beach read!

Great book! This is the first book I have read by this author and I definitely will read another one of his books. It is great for the beach and a very fast read.

If you know Hiaasen then this is one you don't want to miss. If you don't know him he has a slightly twisted sense of humor where the good guy always wins. He can go to the dark side of humor in humans but we all know they are out there. Always funny stuff.

Excellent read. I'm addicted to Carl Hiaasen. I am reading back to back Hiaasen books. The developement of character and plot more than holds my attention. Can't read them fast enough.

Not many books can make me laugh out loud, but this one did many times. I'm not sure where Hiaasen comes up with ideas for his books, but he knows how to write.

I fully enjoyed this book. There are great characters - bad guys, good guys, good bad guys - all entertaining and they all keep you guessing. Great descriptions of Florida and the variety of people who lurk there.
